Right now, just exploring the regions and data we will want to include.
Next steps:
- Add some text…how much methods and such should I add
- Add a few figures showing relative contributions of impacts, etc.
Questions:
- What do I call this project and this region?
- Mollweide ok?
- For impacts, color ramping varies for each category (climate change, shipping, fishing), does this seem ok?
- Fishing is impossible to see any variation. Should I log? Is the point to see internal variation? Or is the point to show that fishing isn’t a big pressure in this particular region?
- Are these the main maps we want?
